[Mccoypottery-talk] remove rust

[M. Caudill]

I use CLR (stands for Calcium/Lime?Rust). I get it at WalMart or almost any=
 grocery in the dishwashing liquid/toilet cleaner section..  Since it's on =
the bottom, I'd put a little in a saucer and set the shoe in it - just enou=
gh to wet the bottom.  Then rub it after soaking with a VERY fine abrasive =
like SOS pad or the green scruffy pads.

Another good way to remove light marks is Barkeepers' Friend (might be Bart=
enders).  Make a thin paste and use it to rub the mark with a soft cloth..

I still need your address to send the Pink& Blue Pitcher (and your check if=
 you haven't sent it yet).  I found two small Dutch shoes at yard sales on =
my trip to Cleveland.  I'm sure they AREN'T McCoy, but don't know what.  In=
terested?
